[0030] In addition, the features, operations or characteristics described in the specification can be combined in any appropriate manner to form various implementations, and the operation steps involved in each embodiment can also be replaced or adjusted in a sequence in a manner that is obvious to those skilled in the art. Therefore, the specification and drawings are only for the purpose of clearly describing a certain embodiment and do not mean that the composition and / or sequence are necessary.
[0031] The serial numbers of the components in this document, such as "first", "second", etc., are only used to distinguish the objects described and do not have any order or technical meaning. The "connection" and "coupling" mentioned in this application, unless otherwise specified, include direct and indirect connections (couplings).
[0032] Shock wave therapy equipment is a non-invasive medical device that uses the principle of shock waves to transmit energy deeply into the internal tissues of the human body through precise focusing and positioning. This device can produce physical and physiological effects to achieve the purpose of treatment. In the field of pain treatment, shock wave therapy devices are particularly widely used, and have certain effects on the treatment of bone tissue diseases and chronic soft tissue injury diseases. Among them, the pneumatic ballistic shock wave device compresses air through an air compressor, and the compressed air is controlled by the host to reciprocate and push the probe, thereby generating shock waves. The main advantages include no energy focus, relative safety, a wide range of wave source propagation, flexible movement of the treatment head during treatment, and good efficacy on soft tissues. However, the affected areas targeted by existing shock wave therapy equipment are mostly treated through the trunk, limbs and other parts of the human body. These parts have a larger area than smaller probes, so their actual bending curvature is smaller, so the surface shape of the corresponding probe is mostly a plane or an extremely small curved surface to ensure fit with the human body surface. However, the probe under this structure cannot be applied to shock wave treatment of male external genitalia, resulting in limited application areas of shock wave therapy equipment.
[0033] To solve the above problems, the present application embodiment provides a replaceable probe, please refer to Figure 1-5 The replaceable probe includes a shell 1 and a probe 2.
[0034] Among them, please refer to Figure 2-4 The housing 1 encloses a receiving cavity 10; the housing 1 includes an outlet port 12 and an inlet port 11, and the inlet port 11 of the housing 1 is used to connect with the shock wave generator. The housing 1 is a surface structure of the replaceable probe, which is used to provide a relatively closed environment for the replaceable probe, protect the components located therein, and provide a user with a grip and other operations. The shape of the housing 1 is usually set to have ergonomic characteristics to improve the user's grip feel.
[0035] In order to accommodate the probe 2, the housing 1 encloses a housing cavity 10. Since the probe 2 needs to receive shock wave energy and needs to output shock waves to the outside, the housing cavity 10 formed by the housing 1 is open at both ends. Among them, the housing 1 includes a corresponding outlet end 12 and an inlet end 11, which respectively correspond to the side of the probe 2 outputting shock waves and the side of the probe 2 receiving shock waves. The inlet end 11 of the housing 1 is connected to the shock wave generator, and the shock wave emitted by the shock wave generator can be received by the probe 2.
[0036] The probe 2 is inserted into the accommodating cavity 10 and is movably connected to the shell 1; the probe 2 includes a coupling portion 21, a connecting portion 22 and a working portion 23, the coupling portion 21 is located at the inlet end 11 of the shell 1, and is used to receive the shock wave energy emitted by the shock wave generator; the working portion 23 is located at the outlet end 12 of the shell 1, the outer end surface of the working portion 23 has a shape matching the contour shape of the male external genitalia, and the working portion 23 is used to contact the surface of the male external genitalia to apply shock waves to the male external genitalia; the connecting portion 22 is connected between the coupling portion 21 and the working portion 23, and is used to transfer the shock wave from the coupling portion 21 to the working portion 23. The probe 2 is movably connected to the shell 1, which means that the probe 2 can reciprocate in the accommodating cavity 10 provided by the shell 1, so that the output of shock waves to human tissue can be realized. Wherein, in order to realize the receiving, transmitting and outputting of shock waves, the component structure of the probe 2 includes a coupling part 21, a connecting part 22 and a working part 23, the coupling part 21 is used to receive the shock waves sent by the shock wave generator, the connecting part 22 is used to transmit the shock waves received by the coupling part 21 to the working part 23, and the working part 23 is used to output the shock waves to human tissue. Therefore, in order to couple the energy of compressed air, when the replaceable probe is connected to the shock wave generator, the coupling part is also directly connected to the shock wave generator, so that the compressed air generated by the shock wave generator directly acts on the coupling part 21, so that the coupling part 21 receives the compressed air generated by the shock wave generator, and the probe 2 acts on the surface of the male external genitalia to apply treatment. Wherein, in order to realize the shock wave treatment of the male external genitalia, the outer end face of the working part 23 in the embodiment of the present application has a shape that matches the outline shape of the male external genitalia, so that the shock wave can be transmitted to the male external genitalia by fitting the working part 23 with the surface of the male external genitalia, so as to realize the shock wave treatment of the male external genitalia. Specifically, the use of shock wave therapy can achieve vascular regeneration, stimulate angiogenesis and microvascular regeneration of the reproductive organs, dredge blood vessels, promote microcirculation to dredge blocked microvessels; fill blood, increase blood flow to the cavernous tissue of the reproductive organs; repair tissues, repair reproductive organ tissues, improve erectile function and restore erectile mechanism.
[0037] The coupling portion 21 , the connecting portion 22 and the working portion 23 constituting the probe 2 can be directly formed in one piece, so as to ensure the stability of the shock wave transmission, reduce the process flow and improve the production efficiency.
[0038] In some optional embodiments, in order to increase the contact area between the working part 23 and the male external genitalia to enhance the therapeutic effect of the shock wave, please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 The outer end surface of the working part 23 may specifically include a through groove 24 arranged in a direction perpendicular to the line connecting the outlet end 12 and the inlet end 11, the inner wall of the through groove 24 is an integrated concave curved surface, and the length of the through groove 24 is greater than or equal to 1.5 times its width. The working part 23 is a part that directly contacts the male external genitalia, and in order to increase the contact area, the length of the male external genitalia can be increased to increase the coverage of the shock wave on the male external genitalia. Among them, a through groove 24 is arranged on the outer end surface of the working part 23, and the through groove 24 is arranged in a direction perpendicular to the outlet end 12 and the inlet end 11, that is, it extends in the horizontal direction; the inner wall of the through groove 24 is integrally formed by an integrated concave curved surface, and it also presents a structure with a middle depression, and its cross-sectional shape along the length direction perpendicular to the through groove 24 is an arc shape that is equal everywhere, thereby presenting a columnar concave curved surface. When in use, the length direction of the through groove 24 is consistent with the extension direction of the male external genitalia, and the inner wall of the through groove 24 is fitted with the male external genitalia. By setting the length of the through slot 24 to be greater than or equal to 1.5 times the width of the through slot 24 , the purpose of increasing the contact area between the working portion 23 and the male external genitalia can be achieved, thereby increasing the coverage of the shock wave and improving the treatment effect.
[0039] In some optional embodiments, for targeted treatment of the root of the male genitalia, please refer to Figure 5 The end surface of the working portion 23 may also include an outer convex surface 25 that protrudes outward in a direction away from the inlet end 11. The through groove 24 is suitable for treating the stem of the male external genitalia, while the outer convex surface 25 is suitable for treating the root of the male external genitalia to achieve the corresponding treatment effect.
[0040] In addition, please refer to the figure, according to different probe shapes, and the surface morphology of the treated part and other requirements, the shape of the replaceable probe in the embodiment of the present application can also be as follows: Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the method can be applicable to the treatment of male external genitalia of different sizes and different parts.
[0041] In some optional embodiments, in order to facilitate assembly and increase the contact area between the working part 23 and the male external genitalia, the cross-sectional size of the working part 23 can be set to be larger than the cross-sectional size of the connecting part 22. The cross-sectional size of the working part 23 refers to the size corresponding to the cross section perpendicular to the direction of the line connecting the outlet end 12 and the inlet end 11 of the housing 1, and the same applies to the connecting part 22. That is to say, in the structure of the probe 2 in the embodiment of the present application, its working part 23 is enlarged, and other parts are smaller, which can facilitate assembly with the housing 1 and connection with the shock wave generator.
[0042] In some optional embodiments, in order to adapt to the structure of the probe 2, the accommodating chamber 10 may specifically include a connecting chamber 13 and a working chamber 14 which are respectively arranged at the inlet end 11 and the outlet end 12 and are interconnected, and the inner diameter of the working chamber 14 gradually increases in the direction away from the inlet end 11; the working part 23 is located in the working chamber 14, and the coupling part 21 is located in the connecting chamber 13. The inner diameter of the working chamber 14 gradually increases in the direction away from the inlet end 11, which can adapt to the shape of the working part 23 and provide a movable space for the working part 23. The connecting chamber 13 is connected to the working chamber 14, wherein the inner diameter of the connecting chamber 13 is smaller than that of the working chamber 14, and is used to accommodate the coupling part 21, and the connecting part 22 connecting the working part 23 and the coupling part 21 is inserted between the connecting chamber 13 and the working chamber 14.
[0043] In some optional embodiments, in order to limit the movement of the probe 2 and allow the probe 2 to smoothly realize reciprocating motion, the replaceable probe may further include a sleeve 3, which is disposed in the working cavity 14, and the outer shape of the sleeve 3 matches the inner wall of the working cavity 14; the connecting portion 22 is inserted in the sleeve 3, and the working portion 23 is located outside the sleeve 3. The sleeve 3 can be provided to allow the working cavity 14 to adapt to different probes 2, and the sleeve 3 is placed in the working cavity 14 to compensate for the space of the working cavity 14, which can limit the range of movement of the probe 2 on the one hand, and reduce the cavity volume of the working cavity 14 on the other hand, so that the movement of the probe 2 is more reliable.
[0044] In some optional embodiments, in order for the probe 2 to smoothly realize reciprocating motion, the replaceable probe may further include an elastic gasket 4, which is fixedly sleeved on the surface of the connecting portion 22 along the circumferential direction; a limiting through hole 15 is formed in the connecting cavity 13, and the outer edge size of the elastic gasket 4 is larger than the inner diameter of the limiting through hole 15. The elastic gasket 4 is sleeved on the surface of the connecting portion 22, which is equivalent to partially increasing the size of the connecting portion 22, and a limiting through hole 15 smaller than the outer edge size of the elastic gasket 4 is formed in the connecting cavity 13, so when the probe 2 moves outward under the action of the shock wave energy, the elastic gasket 4 moves to the limiting through hole 15, contacts with the limiting through hole 15 and is restricted from moving by the limiting through hole 15, at which time the elastic gasket 4 is squeezed and contracted; when the shock wave energy is eliminated, the elastic gasket 4 recovers its deformation, so that the probe 2 returns to its previous position. The elastic gasket 4 can form a sealed connection between the probe 2 and the housing 1 to prevent leakage of energy transmitted by compressed air. In addition, when the replaceable probe is connected to the shock wave generator, the coupling portion of the replaceable probe and the shock wave generator may also be sealed by an elastic gasket to prevent leakage of compressed air.
[0045] In some optional embodiments, in order to limit the excessive movement of the probe 2, the working cavity 14 and the working part 23 are provided with matching limiting structures, and the limiting structures include a flange 51 provided on either the working cavity 14 or the working part 23 and a groove 52 provided on the other, and the flange 51 is located in the groove 52. By providing the flange 51 and the groove 52 between the working cavity 14 and the working part 23, the working part 23 can only move in the space limited by the groove 52 when moving, which can prevent the probe 2 from detaching from the housing 1, and prevent the probe 2 from being stuck in the accommodating cavity 10, and can also allow the probe 2 to smoothly achieve reciprocating motion.
[0046] In some optional embodiments, in order to improve the user's holding stability, an anti-slip structure 6 is also provided on the outer surface of the shell 1. The specific types of the anti-slip structure 6 may include but are not limited to anti-slip grooves 52, bumps or patterns, etc., to increase the friction when the user holds it and prevent it from falling off.
[0047] Based on the replaceable probe provided in the embodiment of the present application, since the end face of the working part 23 of the probe 2 has a curved shape that matches the contour shape of the male external genitalia, and the working part 23 is used to contact the surface of the male external genitalia to apply shock waves to the male external genitalia, shock wave treatment of the male external genitalia is achieved.
[0048] The present application also provides a shock wave male function instrument with a replaceable probe, please refer to Figure 8-10 As shown, it includes a shock wave generator 7 and multiple probe devices 8, the multiple probe devices are replaceably detachably connected to the shock wave generator, and at least one probe device is a replaceable probe in the embodiment of the present application.
[0049] When the probe device 8 is detachably connected to the shock wave generator 7, it can be snap-fitted with the shell of the shock wave generator 7 through the shell, and the coupling portion 21 of the probe device 8 is fixedly connected with the gun body 71 of the shock wave generator 7 through threaded matching or the like. The gun body 71 and the coupling portion 21 are sealed, and the sealing can be achieved by an elastic gasket, or an elastic deformation layer can be directly provided on the surface of the coupling portion 21 and / or the gun body 71, and the elastic deformation layer can seal the coupling portion 21 and the gun body 71 when they are connected, so as to avoid leakage of compressed air.
[0050] The specific components of the shock wave generator may include an air compressor and a host, wherein the air compressor is used to generate compressed air, and the host is used to control the compressed air to act on the probe device, so that the probe device outputs shock waves to the affected area for treatment.
[0051] The shock wave generator in the embodiment of the present application can be equipped with different types of probe devices, and each probe device is detachably connected to the shock wave generator to achieve replacement of different types of probe devices. The probe device at least includes the replaceable probe in the embodiment of the present application, and shock wave therapy for male external genitalia can be achieved based on the replaceable probe.
[0052] In addition, in the replaceable probes suitable for the shock wave male function instrument in the embodiment of the present application, the curved surface of the outer end surface of each probe can have different curvatures while adapting to the surface shape of the male external genitalia, and can be suitable for different parts of the male external genitalia, or suitable for the surface shape of the male external genitalia of different people.
[0053] The above specific examples are used to illustrate the present invention, which are only used to help understand the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. For those skilled in the art of the present invention, some simple deductions, deformations or substitutions can be made based on the idea of the present invention.
